Self Esteem
Fallon Reynolds
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, LPC
"Low self-esteem can often act as an internal critic, making it difficult to recognize your own worth or pursue the things that bring you fulfillment. In our sessions, I offer a gentle, non-judgmental space to help you quiet that inner critic and begin building a healthier, more compassionate relationship with yourself. We will work together to identify the roots of these negative self-perceptions and use practical, evidence-based strategies to cultivate genuine self-acceptance and confidence. My goal is to help you replace self-doubt with self-compassion, empowering you to embrace your strengths and live a life that feels authentic and truly your own."

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I address issues of self-esteem with a compassionate and faith-based approach, integrating psychological expertise with Christian principles to guide individuals toward a healthier sense of self-worth. Recognizing the significance of understanding one's identity in Christ, I incorporate biblical teachings on love, purpose, and the inherent value of each person. Through therapy sessions that may include prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on God's perspective, I collaborate with individuals to explore the root causes of low self-esteem and develop strategies for building a positive self-image. Encouraging reliance on God's unconditional love and acceptance, I empower individuals to overcome negative thought patterns and embrace their true identity within the context of their Christian faith, fostering a renewed sense of self-esteem and confidence.

Dr. Shelley Sommerfeldt
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Building healthy self-esteem is the foundation of how you value and see yourself, shaping your confidence, decisions, and relationships. I work with clients to help them recognize their worth, challenge negative self-beliefs, silence their inner critic, and develop a stronger, more confident sense of self.

Self Esteem
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people who appear capable and put together but carry a quiet, persistent sense of not being enough. This can look like self‑criticism, difficulty trusting your own judgment, comparing yourself to others, downplaying your own needs or accomplishments, or feeling like you are always falling short of who you are supposed to be. Many of the adults I see have spent years meeting expectations, supporting others, or performing well in work or school while privately feeling inadequate, invisible, or unsure of their worth.
Low self‑esteem often develops in environments where your needs were minimized, where you were praised for being responsible or easy, or where you learned to stay small to avoid conflict or disappointment. Over time, these patterns can shape how you see yourself, how you move through relationships, and what you believe you are allowed to want.
In our work together, we explore the origins of these beliefs and how they show up in your body, emotions, and daily life. We look at the roles you have carried, the expectations you have internalized, and the parts of you that are tired of feeling not enough. The goal is not to create artificial confidence but to help you develop a more grounded, accurate sense of yourself so you can move through your life with more clarity, self‑respect, and choice. Supporting people who have learned to minimize themselves or feel “not enough” is central to my practice, and I have deep respect for how hard you’ve worked to hold things together.
